KWK 8: Cousins Kajol, Rani Mukerji Break Silence On “Awkward Distance” Between Them: “There Was No Reason
Thank you for clearing the air!

Bollywood is not only known for its massy films but also celebrities who are actually rishtedaar. Hidden and wrapped in family trees, some popular celebrities often hail from the same khandaans, and actresses Rani Mukerji and Kajol. The actresses joined their close friend and filmmaker/producer Karan Johar on the latest season of Koffee With Karan 8. Making a special appearance as Johar’s first leading ladies and cousins, the Mukerji sisters walked down the road to nostalgia, the two made some interesting revelations.

For anyone who had no clue about them being relatives, Johar slyly slipped that topic into the segment and enquired how their bond deepened with time. When questioned why they kept a distance from each other, earlier, Rani mentioned–”I could sense that distance from her, because I have known her as a kid and she’s always been Kajol didi for me. And it was a bit strange, but I guess when you grow up, you grow apart. Me and Tanisha were closer and not really Kajol didi.”
Speaking about their growing bond, Rani went on to mention–”I think it mostly happened when our fathers passed away. I was actually very close to Kajol’s dad, and when you experience loss in families, it is when you come close,” agreeing to which Kajol said–”I think in such a case, families come closer.” Rani also mentioned that there was a time when Tanisha finally came home and she questioned her why there was a distance, and tried to find the reason, to which Rani responded–”I think we had no reasons, and I found a lot of people who wanted to make that distance wider.”
